Cricket must move on - Strauss

Test captain Andrew Strauss feels it's time for cricket to move on from the spot fixing scandal as England prepare to face Pakistan again in a three-Test series in the Middle East in January.

Ex-captain Salman Butt plus bowlers Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Amir were given prison sentences earlier this month after being found guilty of conspiring to bowl deliberate no-balls during the Lords' Test in 2010.

England start the series, being played in Dubai and Abu Dhabi because of concerns about security in Pakistan, as the number one ranked Test side in the world.
